Tweet I found out that there is something called Z-Wave from Zensys, which claims is much better than ZigBee due to its operating frequencies which are at 900 and 800 bands, hence it is isolated from WiFi band (no more potential disturbance.) According to Zensys: Z-Wave technology dramatically extends the possibilities of today’s home security […]

Tweet After lots of googling I got this useful blog with lots of must-to-have links for NS2, ZigBee and most of the tools to do the simulation. We are going to have a course project for network simulation on WPAN and ZigBee and these rare resources are very handy to start with. NS2 for IEEE […]

Tweet E-payment or e-wallet which is actually implemented as m-wallet is the biggest shot of NFC. Use of m-wallet in e-ticketing is replacing the current payment method such as mobile (SMS, web based) payment or using traditional plastic card. New generations of contactless Mastercard (paypass) or Visa (paywave) cards are available in market for […]

Tweet Near field communication is a short range (<20cm) wireless communication system designed for mobile phones or other mobile devices supporting up to 424kbps of data rate. It uses the same proximity technology of RFID working in 13.5MHz. Although standardization of NFC is still in progress, many applications are proposed to use it, mostly focused […]

Tweet About Touch is a research project that investigates Near Field Communication (NFC), a technology that enables connections between mobile phones and physical things. We are developing applications and services that enable people to interact with everyday objects and situations through their mobile devices. More…

Tweet This video is about exploring the spatial qualities of RFID, visualised through an RFID probe, long exposure photography and animation. It features Timo Arnall of the Touch project and Jack Schulze of BERG.I —Immaterials: the ghost in the field Immaterials: the ghost in the field from timo on Vimeo.

Tweet “CSMA/CA attempts to avoid collisions by using explicit packet acknowledgment (ACK), which means an ACK packet is sent by the receiving station to confirm that the data packet arrived intact.” – Wireless communication and and network by Vijay Garg
